Welcome to Class 3 with Mr Stevens, Ms Beasley, Mrs Bennett and Miss Barnes.

Autumn Curriculum Newsletter 2025

We have had a lovely History lesson today where we have been sharing our own personal family history about how the war impacted them. We have had soldiers fighting in Egypt and North Africa, women who were plane spotters, women who were land girls and many experiences as evacuees. It was really great seeing them so happy to share their own history.

We have had a brilliant morning with a visit from Farmwise. They have spoken to the children about how farms produce cereal crops and what products the grains end up in. We also looked at how dairy products were made straight from the start by milking the cow.

We have had an amazing day today. We were visited by the author Joseph Elliott. Joseph gave us a talk on why and how he became an author and then allowed us to create our own monsters in a similar way to how he creates his. Each child created their own monster and then created an opening to a story involving their monster. They are also very lucky to be taking home a signed copy of Joseph’s newest book, kindly donated by Appledore Book Festival. Everyone was excited to to read these new books. Thank you so much to both Appledore Book Festival and Joseph for making such a memorable day.
